Ganga Kaveri Consistently maintains the exclusivity of being the highest seller of quality paddy seed possible only through developmental and maintenance breeding programmes. The Company strives continuously to develop varieties and hybrids suitable to drought, water logging, superior cooking quality and higher grain yield for both rainy and winter seasons. The Company concentrates also on developing easy threshing, high milling recovery to suit the needs of farmers and traders. Hybrids range from early to medium maturity with medium slender to long slender grains.

Ganga Kaveri cotton program cater to northern, central and southern zones of India through development of hybrids with erect / semi erect/ open plant types, with medium to big bolls, good ginning percent and fiber quality tolerance to sucking pests and diseases. The Company has development very good CLCV tolerance by screening parents and hybrids in hot spot locations. Ten transgenic cotton hybrid are development with specific adaptability to different zones.

» Open and tall plant
» Medium maturing (160-170 days)
» High boll number and large bolls (5.25-5.75g)
» Tolerant to sucking pests
» Suitable for varied agro-climatic conditions of Central and South Zone states

Ganga kaveri has evolved good maize hybrids of different maturity groups with stay green character, high selling percent and test weight suitable to varied agro –climatic zones. Ganga Kaveri has developed large number of inbred parents from reputed national and international institutes to strengthen its germplasm bank. The Company’s maize breeding programme clearly addresses the need of progressive farmers by evolving highly productive single crosses tolerant to biotic and abiotic stresses. Ganga Kaveri is simultaneously developing 3-way cross hybrids for less affordable farming community.

Ganga Kaveri hybrids have been adopted for cultivation in 30-40% of total area under sunflower hybrids cultivation in India. It can be well attributed to structured and excellent breeding programme accomplished by the team. The identified germplasm is highly resistant to necrosis virus. Powdery mildew and alternaria diseases. We can highly stable and widely adapted medium maturing hybrids suitable to all diverse agro-climate conditions and tolerant to abiotic stress. The farmer reaps good value for his produce through Ganga Kaveri sunflower hybrids like GK 2002 due to its higher oil content and test weight properties.

The Pearl Millet hybrids from Ganga Kaveri are suitable for rainy (drought tolerance) and summer (heat tolerance) seasons. The desirable traits include early to medium maturing hybrids with good tailoring ability tall / medium height, semi compact to compact panicle and with good roti (Bread) making
quality – all successfully addressed through research and successive seed development programs at Ganga Kaveri. Most of the hybrids tolerance to Downy Mildew

The Company has developed very good hybrids in grain sorghum for varied locations that are less prone to lodging and tolerant to major pests and diseases. Multi-cut varieties of sorghum Sudan grass (SSG) Hybrids have been developed with low HCN content and high digestible fodder. The SSG hybrids range includes both ‘red’ and ‘white’ grain colors.

Ganga Kaveri has also initiated the breeding program for developing high yielding wheat varieties with superior grain quality and tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. The varieties developed here have wide adaptability and can be grown an various agro climatic zones.

The mustard breeding program was started with the objective of serving different maturity segments, various plant types and different seed colors. The company aims to identify and produce seed for high oil yield varieties with wide adaptability.
